Summary: | Abstract In most of the animation pipelines today, motion capture and different simulations e.g. Autodesk Maya Muscle is used to get a more realistic feel of an animation. The main goal of this Thesis is to make a character appear and move in as natural a way as possible and exploring different methods on receiving a good result. It will answer different question on how to record movement and using that data together with a system that simulates muscles. To complete this process we will record using a Microsoft Kinect Camera, which is originally hardware for Xbox movement software. For our muscle simulation we used Autodesk Maya Muscle, where we built a muscle system. This will be research through finding information on each subject separately and trough experiments combing the two together
